The Biomechanical Effect of Wedged, Eggbar and Extension Shoes in Sound and Lame Horses
نویسندگان
چکیده
Horses with navicular disease, laminitis, and bone spavin redistribute weight to unload the painful aspect of the foot/limb. Wedges aided this redistribution but shoe extensions did not. It is not appropriate to undertake studies into the mechanics of corrective farriery on sound horses of good conformation and then extrapolate these results to predict the effect of corrective shoeing on a lame horse.

متن کاملThe Effect of Lateral Wedged Shoes on Medial Compartment Load of the Knee Joint
INTRODUCTION: Osteoarthritis of the knee joint most often starts at the medial compartment, presumably due to its higher loading [1]. Several conservative methods exist to unload the medial compartment, such as the use of valgus braces, canes and laterally wedged shoes. Several studies have shown that the external adduction moment, which is associated with medial compartment load, is reduced by...
متن کاملEFFECT OF AGILITY SHOES ON RUNNING KINETICS IN INDIVIDIUALS WITH GENU VARUS BEFORE AND AFTER FATIGUE PROTOCOL
Background & Aim: Genu varus is one of the most common injuries of the lower limb, which affects posture control by creating internal torque on the ankle and foot joints. The complication of Genu varus is accompanied by the biomechanical change of the lower limb during walking and running. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of using agility shoes on running kinetics in indi...

متن کاملPrognosis of Hepatic Amyloidosis Status and Insufficiency in Snake Antivenom Producing Horses
Hyperimmunization of horses with specific antigens to harvest antisera is associated with high incidence of liver amyloidosis. The histopathologic examination is the gold standard method for diagnosis of the hepatic amyloidosis. The aim of the present study was to determine whether the clinical manifestations and serum values of appropriate chemical constituents due to liver injury, provide the...
